What did we come up with?
- Noam Chomsky. He was savaged by the Wall St. Journal for this so you know he was telling the truth.
The one who started the feature, Dalia Hashad, returns to claim a "truest."
Juan Gonzalez. He can speak on the pages of The New York Daily News . . . even if he can't speak on Democracy Now.
- They lied about 'withdrawal' and lied for years. Last week, they had the chance to set the record straight. Instead, they stuck with their lies.
Ava and C.I. take on . . . Well everything. This commentary covers the TV shows Body of Proof and The Chicago Code. It also covers the increasingly hideous Democracy Now. It covers Native American and Latino issues and issued of representation and identification. The line that makes me (Jim) laugh the most is the "tree" line that Native Americans and New Mexico call the show. :D
Patty Murray's legislation and why we support it.
At last, the feature long promised. I know many of you had given up on it after two weeks in a row of it being promised but shelved. Here it is.
Our e-mail roundtable.
I thought this needed more attention.
Workers World reprint.
Mike and the gang wrote this and we thank them for it.
And that's what we got. We'll see you next week.
Peace.

C.I.
